Bio Sculpture gel

aftercare

FIRST 24 HOURS

​

don't expose your gel to lots of water or heat
taking a shower is fine, but no swimming or baths!
take care when cooking and ironing, and no saunas!

​

ALWAYS

​

keep your cuticles moisturised - the more hydrated your hands are, the longer your gel will last, and wear gloves when washing up or gardening to protect from damage and scratches

​

NEVER

​

attempt to pick at, or peel off, your gel; not only will this damage the gel but importantly this will damage your nails; similarly, don't use your nails as tools but treat them with care

​

SUBSTANCES WHICH STAIN

​

be wary of substances such as ink, turmeric or other foods, and some fabrics like new dark clothing, and products such as sunblock, fake tan and insect repellants; if used, clean your hands quickly

aftercare

Elim pedicure

FIRST 24 HOURS

 

don't expose your freshly renewed feet to lots of water or heat
taking a shower is fine, but no swimming, baths, sun beds or saunas, and where possible, avoid going running

 

ONGOING ADVICE

​

specific aftercare advice will be given during your treatment, tailored and dependent on the needs of your feet, however for the best Elim results, book your appointments regularly

general

BOOKING FREQUENCY

for gel treatments, approximately 3-4 weeks between appointments is recommended, but this varies client-to-client; Elim sessions must be booked with a minimum of 2 weeks apart

GAPS BETWEEN TREATMENTS

it is not necessary to let your nails "breathe" after any periods of treatment (this is a myth, and nails don't "breathe"!), however, natural manicures are available to book should you wish

LOYALTY SCHEMES

continuous treatment allows for nail health improvements and nail growth, so to encourage this I have introduced a loyalty scheme to earn rewards for continuous treatments

TAKE-HOME PRODUCTS

certain products, cuticle oils and creams, some Elim Pedicure products, plus Bio Sculpture's range of Gemini nail polishes may be available to purchase; please ask during your appointment for details
